It seemed difficult to communicate. We had an issue with the dishwasher/garburator not draining working. Wish we could have sent a message instead of call only during business hours. Also, there is NO extra supplies. We spent a week there with only a couple rolls of TP. Had to buy a pack.

Thank you Bonnie for the 10 out of 10 rating ! We do apologize that communication was difficult! WE continue to work on that , when guests are in house phone calls are the quickest way to reach us ! WE do list in the guest portal what is included in the starter kit, even so we are looking into changing that up a bit . Sun Palace Vacations

Chloe, I am not sure why you felt the need to write a review when you did not stay at the property . I do see that you and your group did not meet the age requirements , so the reservation was cancelled. I apologize but we do have to follow policy . Sun Palace Vacations
